TOMapleLaughs Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 The 'everyone is a Nazi' argument also only works to build CPC support. So that combined with the crushing info policing going on leading to mass street-level protests? Woof, hard to see them losing the next election.

This will be their third attempt to try & defeat pretty boy (I don't count Harper as even 100 year old John Turner might've won that election).

Industrious1 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Some good points being made on both sides. Although I do believe that some 'arguments' were more valid than others 3-6 months ago. As such, they have been rendered somewhat ineffective/confusing as the situation has evolved. I am referring to certain mandates, which clearly aren't being followed seriously anymore or the more egregious travel mandates/restrictions which are currently front and center in the news and in many conversations happening around the globe. Letting 'er rip as some would say is probably the not the safest way forward but some would say it is the most practical. The answer is most likely something in-between that and lockdowns because at this point the government stands to lose serious face (and certain hardliners) if they just 180 and let things drop, there is pride and politics to consider (we can see it in this very thread). The equitable way forward has to involve a compromise between those in power and the disenfranchised that would allow both to go home knowing that they've both pulled on the same rope and did the right thing. The way backward could be any number of things. Either way it will be very interesting to observe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
